I am just starting my first ever sketchbook at age 48.  I hope to keep it up.  My goals are simply to explore different mediums and different things, a few minutes at a time.  I've just started your course, but I liked the ideas of 1)writing a note to myself and 2)starting my first drawing of something that I am comfortable with. So, I wrote the note, and I did a big squiggle drawing like my mom used to do for me and I did for my girls and I filled the spaces with the different mediums that I have now.  Colored pencil, watercolor pencil, watercolor, ball point pen, ultrafine sharpie, and graphite pencil.  And a few tests of a small tip brush pen.  Here we go!  ( will cross post these 2 images on another sketchpost class that also gave me some of the inspiration today.)
